Davis/White have had time to experiment with the sd this season and what the judges are looking for. i have not seen virtue/moir for a very long time now so it will be interesting to see how they do. even though i know the scores from nationals were inflated, the shibutanis did beat davis/white technically(they were both judged on the same scale)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1122543335597604643.post-82466927747901194932011-02-09T15:08:32.920-05:002011-02-09T15:08:32.920-05:00I've also become a fan of Chock/Zuerlein this ...I've also become a fan of Chock/Zuerlein this season. They have a fun free dance that's quite different from the usual saccharine and bland material that Z/S keep churning out. The Shibutanis are wonderfully skilled but I'm not a fan just yet. I would like to see less sweetness and for Maia to bring out her inner diva, that's what ice dancing is all about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1122543335597604643.post-83244626247677186752011-02-09T14:46:06.729-05:002011-02-09T14:46:06.729-05:00I'm sure the Shibutani's little mess up in...I'm sure the Shibutani's little mess up in the Skate America SD was nothing but a freak accident. They are so strong in the footwork, so I doubt they will continue to have trouble with that.

It would be funny if they managed to end up fourth (and your podium remained the same) to have the training mates all at the top :-P<br /><br />I really hope someone shows this or has videos at least. It looks like icenetwork won't have it. I did email Universal Sports but so far no reply :-(booklover82https://www.blogger.com/profile/05929478620700896833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1122543335597604643.post-38081153334988567582011-02-07T21:31:34.095-05:002011-02-07T21:31:34.095-05:00The Shibutanis had problems at Skate America with ...The Shibutanis had problems at Skate America with their short dance as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
